This is an amazing Jumping Spider guarding its eggs in the backside of a tropical tree leaf, there are around 43 green magnificent eggs in here. The species is well know for its predation abilities, thanks to its enlarged front legs.

Looks like a lynx spider..
We can call it as " Lynx mimic jumping spider" :P
Updated!
You're welcome, Phillip. I once made the same mistake... :-)
Thank you Sergio, I Thought it was a Lynx spider for its anatomy structure, but now that you show me that species I see it now, Thanks!
Indeed Mark! thank you!
Sure is a green world in there. Nice find.
I thhink it is not a Linx spider, but a jumping spider (possibly Lyssomanis viridis)
